Answered Question - Disney Parks Moms Panel

We will be visiting Animal Kingdom on 02/12/14. Will we be able to catch Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parage and still be able to make our 4:45pm reservation at Boma at the Animal Kingdom Lodge?

- Asked by Lindsay from Maryland on 1/30/2014

Hi, Lindsay! I'm not going to sugar coat things, it will be tight timing, but not impossible. Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parade is set for 3:45 P.M. that day. You will not want to be at the beginning of the parade route. You will want to be waiting for it nearer the park entrance. It will take about 10 to 15 minutes to get to you. Then, it is 15 minutes long. That puts you at 4:15. You will dash to the buses and grab the first one you can to the Animal Kingdom Lodge. This usually takes between 15 and 20 minutes. If everything goes well, you will JUST make your reservation. Honestly, I don't like to feel that stressed and anxious about arriving at our reservations on time. I would probably see if there was a later Advance Dining Reservation time available to preserve your nerves. Happy planning and have a Magical vacation!
